So! more shifting about in kids! I didn't have help today so I had to balance my other tasks ontop of this, but I think Alura will be able to finish the rest tomorrow morning. Here's what the department looked like this morning: I moved Nature (Carolyn moved science) over to the other side of the island. The old Discoveries bay is now Fun, Fashion and Friendship, which didn't exist before. I had to go find all of the titles in the activities bay, I didn't have a list, so I had to scan each and every book and kit to see if it went in this new bay). The top two shelves are -supposed to be two tiered (just like it sounds, it makes one shelf into two shelves one above and behind the other), but Ross couldn't find them in the back. He -did- however find the two fence fixtures I needed yesterday! So I had to scan every preschool book in an attempt to make four shelves of preschool books turn into two shelves of preschool books. Then I had to wrestle with the heavy fence fixtures to get them ON the shelves. Then, I enlisted the help of Chris (who is short but very strong) to shove the shelves onto the bookcase. He worked up quite a sweat. I filled the fence fixtures with the rest of the chicken socks (hurray!). In the space where Nature -used- to go, I set up the shelves for humor (and music art and dance on the bottom shelf). Where Humor used to be will be the second part of Juvenile Biographies and sports. That was all I had time for, because I had to keep HELPING people. End result: I promise tomorrow or next time I post I won't talk about work! PS in other news, Ed and I have a running bet, whomever can work the phrase "I love so hard people DIE" into casual conversation and deliver it with a straight face will be treated to dinner by the loser. Ed has a handicap because the pool of people I talk to on a daily basis is mostly work people, and that makes it a LOT harder. I stil think I have a good chance of winning this one, and if I lose, I can live with that. posted by Amber at 12:10 AM

Also...

Could the 'I' in that phrase be substituted with 'Chuck Norris'? It could be a Chuck Norris fact: Chuck Norris doesn't get 'crushes' on people. Chuck Norris Loves so hard people DIE.

Whaddaya think?

naw, man that's too easy. It's gotta be me loving so hard that people DIE. I'll win it, just you wait!

About the Chicken Socks, yes I worry too (although, seriously, having a place to put those suckers is -nice-, they've just been taking up space). I worry more that I spent time drawing out four maps of the floor because I want everyone to UNDERSTAND the width and breath of my awesomosity
